What rides need paint jobs?

Maybe it's just me but Wicked Twister still looks pretty good. Not as vibrant as it once was but it still looks good. I agree that Maverick is in most need right now. Though faded red is a lot more obvious than faded yellow.
I thought that they might paint Magnum for this water park expansion but it really isn't in huge need right now.

Iron Dragon. I'm not a fan of the orange on red color scheme.

Iron Dragon should really be green and black, or green and purple or just any other combination of green with something that looks like a dragon and not sandwich condiments.

The McDonalds color scheme on ID is hideous. Swamp green track with brown supports to blend into that wooded area would be more suitable.

I totally agree. I hate the ID color scheme right now. It is themed to a dragon in a forest and near a lagoon for god sake! It should be swampy brown and green, maybe some black in there, or something along those lines.

It's weird how they got the details of the station so right and then the track so hideous.

While I agree that ID needs a new color scheme, painting it in what amounts to camouflage is a pretty awful idea. It can be "dragony" while not being green/brown/black. Think teal, bright green, yellow, etc.

I'd accept the old scheme, red track with unpainted (or silver/gray) supports.

I'd like to see the trains on Iron Dragon vinyl wrapped like Viper at Darien Lake (can't find a decent picture but the trains have scales that look like snake skin) and then add a dragon's head to the front car. Make it look like a dragon. Then some sort of sky blue track with the supports blue on the top half and green on the bottom half, make it look like the sky & ground for the dragon to fly past... It looks cool in my head but maybe I'm not describing it right.

To be frank, Wicked Twister and Maverick don't look AWFUL with faded colors.. Especially Maverick. I think the faded red is a good color for the area.

However I do second repainting of Iron Dragon.They need something in the area other than orange.. Valravn and Rougarou are enough orange... I think silver and hunter green would be a good combo.

I also think Woodstock Express needs a new paint scheme! It's all one god awful peach color. They should paint it yellow with silver or light blue supports..

I don't think Maverick looks that bad either. Its weathered appearance fits in with that area of the park.

I'll join the re-paint Iron Dragon group. I never understood why they wanted to paint it so similar to Dragster.

I happen to love the Valravn color scheme. The orange is actually more of a rust color. I don't know who thought that such a bright shade of orange would look good on Iron Dragon. I've hated it since the first time I saw it.
On a side note, orange is my favorite color. This is how much I hate it on ID.

"Hunter green". What is this, an outdated 1980's kitchen we're making here?

I totally agree with others that Maverick's faded paint fits its location in FrontierTown perfect.

As far as Iron Dragon, it looks as if they have started painting it. If you look at the supports behind Blood on the Bayou, you can see the difference in color of the supports...faded and fresh paint.

Wicked Twister is in need of paint bad.

Yeah, it's not so much the yellow spiral track on WT as it is the main supports. They are faded beyond belief. I've always hated the mustard and ketchup "condiment" look on Iron dragon. I'd also rather have the grey supports back first. I think that a totally new revamped paint job (ala green and black like a dragon) as others have suggested, might bring some life back into this ride. Good ideas.

I don't think it's being repainted. Aren't those supports painted a different color so they don't stand out during the haunt? Having a bright yellow support would kind of ruin a blacked out area for a walk through haunt.

WT the most. It would also be one of the easiest coasters to paint with such minimal amount of track.

The CP&LE passenger cars ceilings needs a paint job. The train is so nice to look at until you sit down and look up - and see rust.

Power Tower could use a paint job. Does anyone know if it's ever been re-painted?
